Abstract (en)

In a method for capturing fattened poultry in a coop, at least one driven, raisable and lowerable barrier (12, 14,16) is provided and a conveyor belt (18) is fitted, leading to a transport container. Barriers move uniformly in the direction of the conveyor belt, which moves in the direction of the container. Preferably several flat parallel barriers are provided, moving at about 1.25 cm/sec. Also claimed is a capturing system for fattened poultry held in a coop with a conveyor belt and at least one barrier which can be driven in the direction of the conveyor belt and which can be raised and lowered at alternative positions within their travel distance.

Ein Fangsystem für in einem Stall gehaltenes Mastgeflügel weist ein Förderband (18) und mehrere in Richtung des Förderbandes (18) antreibbare Barrieren (12, 14, 16) auf. Die Barrieren werden mit langsamer Geschwindigkeit in Richtung des Förderbandes bewegt, wodurch das zu fangende Mastgeflügel sich auf das Förderband (18) bewegt und von dort in Richtung eines Transportbehältnisses bewegt wird. <IMAGE>
